    KAY LINDJUWANGA born 1956 BULUWANA AT DILEBANG, 2003 natural eath pigments and PVA fixture on carved hardwood (Kurrajong (brachychiton diversifolius)) 170.0 cm (height) PROVENANCE Maningrida Arts and Culture, Maningrida, Northern Territory (cat. 4502-03) Collection of James Smeaton, Melbourne, acquired from the above This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Maningrida Arts and Culture which states: ’The Kuninjku people of Arnhem Land tell of a time when their ancestors suffered a terrible drought. People living in the rocky outlier region near the middle Mann River dug wells to get water until these too dried up. Then they obtained water by cutting the trunks of Melaleuca trees called djidjdjerok which store brackish water inside. When these trees were exhausted, people were surviving only on wild honey. Eventually people died of thirst. The bones of these people are said to be those found in the caves of the escarpment country of Western Arnhem Land in the Mann River district.  In the ancestral time of creation was a great drought. During this time Buluwana and her family camped at Ngandarrayo on Kurulk clan land. They were weak from thirst and close to death. The malevolent gigantic form of the Deaf Adder snake confronted the group. Buluwana attempted to run away with the rest of her family but was crushed and turned to stone. Today an arrangement of rocks standing in the ground remains as Buluwana ’s present day form. Only her head protrudes as a prismic standing stone, the rest of her body is under the ground. Other human remains lying on rock ledges are said to be the remains of other early ancestors.’ © Kay Lindjuwanga/Copyright Agency 2023 This work is located in our Melbourne Gallery This work is in very good, stable and original condition. There has been some minor discolouration to the lower torso area of the work due to secretion of natural resins. The figure has been placed on a black painted metal support stand.

    Kay Lindjuwanga is a Kuninjku artist and daughter of renowned painter Peter Marralwanga. She was taught to paint by her husband and acclaimed artist, John Mawurndjul. Lindjuwanga has often assisted Mawurndjul with his painting. In the early 1990s, she was among the first Kuninjku women to paint on bark. As well as bark paintings, her repertoire includes lorrkon (hollow logs), mimih carvings, and etchings. She had her first solo show in 2004 at Aboriginal & Pacific Arts in Sydney and her work was included in the landmark exhibition Crossing Country at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. In 2004, she won the Telstra Bark Painting Award. This work concerns the Mardayin ceremony and its content is of a secret and sacred nature.
